Everyday I’m asked numerous times by my followers for a “secret sauce” or “fountain of youth.” A good diet paired with a consistent exercise routine has always been my answer but most women want more. “Isn’t there something on the market I could use?” Unfortunately, there was honestly no product that I could endorse to significantly help with the aging process. Until now.

The foundation of any successful weight-loss or fitness plan is consistency. If you’re not consistent with your efforts, it’s difficult to make real changes. And if you’re not seeing changes in yourself, you’ll eventually become unmotivated and uncommitted to a healthy lifestyle. I’ve seen a lot of women lose their momentum at the one place that they spend more time at than their homes: work. It’s so easy to get wrapped up in day-to-day duties and responsibilities. Oftentimes, we let convenience drive our decisions and this is what can derail all of our efforts and tip us towards a slippery slope.

In many ways, choosing the right gym is like choosing the right partner in life. You want it to meet most of your requirements. It has to fit into your lifestyle, it has to motivate you and of course, it’s always an added bonus if it looks good too.
